The Show

The musical is directed by Joe Mantello, famed director of ‘Wicked’. The show is based on the story by writer Brian Yorkey and John Logan. The choreography of the show is helmed by Steven Hoggett. The show takes its inspiration from Sting’s memories of growing up in North East England’s shipbuilding community. It revolves around a man who travels the world for fourteen years and returns to his seafaring town of Wallsend only to find the shipyard’s future in serious jeopardy. He also has to face the heart wrenching news of his love interest’s engagement with another man.

The Artist

Winner of sixteen Grammy Awards, Sting has enthralled millions around the globe with his chart breaking singles and platinum certified albums. First shot to fame as the lead singer of the celebrated band the Police, Sting ventured into a successful solo career that has resulted in eleven studio albums, three compilations and four live albums. The artist acquired universal acclaim and was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame as well as Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for his work.

Sting began his solo musical journey with the release of his debut studio album ‘The Dream of the Blue Turtles’ in 1985 that made it to number two on the US Billboard 200 chart and was a Top 10 hit in Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Germany, France, UK and Australia. It was certified three times platinum status in the US and two times platinum in UK. Since then, Sting has released nine Platinum or higher albums and three Gold albums.

The Venue

Once Chicago’s tallest building, the Bank of America Theatre was initially opened as a vaudeville theatre in 1906, named the Majestic Theatre. After the Great Depression, it was reopened as the Sam Shubert Theatre, following the purchase by the Shubert Organization. In 1991, it was sold to the Nederlander Organization and has since then gone through several renovations. The theatre was renamed as Bank of America Theatre in 2008 and now continues to present touring Broadway productions.

The well equipped modern facility allows the audience to enjoy their favorite shows with complete ease and comfort. The venue will be the perfect choice to stage the world premiere of the highly sought after musical, The Last Ship. All theatre lovers will be in search of The Last Ship tickets this season. So make sure to reserve your seat at the Chicago’s finest theatre and witness a riveting new musical show.

Testimonials

I wanted to surprise my daughter with Disney on Ice tickets for her birthday. Time was running out and I just wanted to do something special for her. One of the moms at her school recommended your website and you guys saved my life! Even though I placed the order a day before the show, much to my relief I got the tickets right on time. I must say that you guys are highly professional. Thank you for making my daughter’s day so special!

– Sherry Barkley (Tucson - Arizona)

Ever since I heard James Taylor’s ‘You’ve got a Friend’, I wanted to attend one of his concerts. But due to sheer bad luck and a busy schedule, it just wasn’t happening. When I saw that you guys still had the best seats available, I immediately grabbed them to impress my girlfriend. The good seats made all the difference and the music was classic James Taylor, making it an unforgettable night.

– Jim Slater (Saint Paul - Minnesota) (New York City - NY)

The worst that can happen to a Ariana Grande fan is that she is performing in your city and you can’t find the tickets from anywhere. By sheer luck I found out that your site still had some left. Your representatives were extremely accommodating and cooperative, which made the entire process extremely easy. Keep up the good work guys. You make many people happy every day.

– Christine Wimberly (Worcester - Massachusetts)

Being a frequent concertgoer and a student, I always went through so much trouble trying to score tickets at reasonable prices and sometimes (I admit) got ripped off by scalpers. I asked practically everybody I knew for help, but prices were always too high. But you guys really helped me out in the end. With your amazing promotional codes, I got my tickets within my measly student budget. You guys are definitely life savers. Here’s a shout out from UCLA. Thanks Guys!

– Martin Young (Los Angeles - California)

I don’t usually write this, but I thought I should definitely tell you guys how much I appreciated getting my Zac Brown Band tickets from you. A lifelong skeptic of anything remotely associated with credit cards and the internet, your service was exceptional and made me a believer. Thank you so much. Great job guys!
